There was an interesting article in the NYTimes on Sunday about Billy Joel. When asked which of his songs make him think, he immediately cites two: “Vienna” (1978), a celebration of a life’s worth at every age, and “Summer, Highland Falls” (1976), a meditation on emotional extremes.
It’s a good article of his life and how he’s come to terms with his success. He seems to be much more chill now. Although i wonder what his thoughts are about Christie Brinkley’s latest divorce debacle.
